Windows 10: Laptop won't turn back on after closing the lid, and wifi disconnects chronically

When I close my laptop lid, my device goes to sleep. If I reopen the lid too soon within 3-5 minutes the device is still clearly powered on, but screen stays black and I can't get it to turn on again; pressing the keys or moving the mouse does nothing. I have to either close the lid again and wait for 5 minutes or restart my laptop, which is quite frustrating. I've searched the forums for similar problems but haven't found anything helpful. I've fiddled with the power and sleep settings, such as the timing to turn the screen off, but that hasn't helped. I've also run the power troubleshooter

WiFi disconnection /download speed reaches 0 upon lid close


Hey Everyone!

I have a HP pavilion ab221tx laptop. The wifi chipset inside it is a realtek rtl8723BE. I am noticing that download speeds immediately reach zero upon lid close & may be the laptop's wifi also disconnects. By the time I open the lid and the display turns on,the wifi would have got connected.

I googled a lot but was unable to figure out if it's an OS issue/os build issue/setting issue.

I have tried things like
*reintalling the driver from oem site & also updating it
*disabling power saving options of the wifi adapter".
*tweaking advanced settings in power plans (ensured wireless adapter performance is set to maximum in all power plans)


I am facing this issue since the last three days. I remember installing certain apps like PC Remote(Beta) & WIN-Remote Control, which enable you to make your android smartphone's touchscreen act like a laptop's touchpad. While doing this , I came across an article where they suggested to enable "wake on magic packet" in the advanced tab of LAN adapter properties. I just went there to check if it was enabled or not but I found it to be enabled (ideal setting as suggested). Thereafter I had changed none of the settings.

I have since uninstalled all those "pc control softwares/ reinstalled those wifi and lan adapters/re-enabled maximum performance of the network adapter in power plans/disabled sleep "do nothing" on lid close & re-unchecked allow the computer to turn off this device to save power but still face this wifi disconnection issue upon lid close. I really do not understand what went wrong!

Is it likely that these softwares would have caused the issue? How can I fix it?

WiFi disconnects when I close lid

Hi,

I've been having this problem where I close y laptop's lid, and when I go back to open it again, the WiFi is always disconnected and I always have to wait for it to connect again. I have tried many ways to prevent this (Disabling "Allow computer to turn
off this device to save power", Disabling "USB selective suspend setting"). Is there any way to actually prevent this?
